An active hunter in Hokkaido was thrown into another world.
13. I also have money to get into the city
"Sa, I don't know what to do!
"What all of a sudden!?
Walking down the street, I think.
"I asked the village chief, actually, you have an entrance tax to get into the city,"
"You mean it costs money?
"Yes."
"Well, we, you know, have nothing to say..."
A carriage left the city from the fortified city came. Is he a merchant?
"I'm sorry!
Speak up.
"What is it?
Yeah, a merchant-style uncle who seems a little nice to people.
There's a hunter-like escort sitting on your stand.
You stopped the carriage on purpose. That's kind of you.
"How much was Surplus's entry tax?
"Oh, six silver coins if you're handy."
"Twelve for two?
"Right.... but you're a big elf lady"
Ha ha, did Saran stop the carriage by accident because it was unusual?
"Okay. Thanks!
"Bye. Be careful!
"Twelve. Ah. Without that kind of money... we're poor."
"There it is."
Move it. Move it.
Two 25kg bags of example salt from a velcro bag.
Fifty bucks...... That's worth 5,000 yen.
"Saran, take charge of this."
"Fine..."
Saran walks with a bag of salt on his shoulders.
In front of the castle gate, there's a line of merchant carriages waiting to be checked by the guards.
Walk next to it, both of us.
"Don't you want salt - eh. Don't you need salt?
The eyes of the merchants sparkle.
"Don't you want salt - eh?"
"Wait a minute, brother!
All right, one merchant has spoken up.
"Salt or will you sell it to me?
"Depends on the price"
"Let me have a look"
Your old merchant came out of the carriage to see it.
Saran unloads the bag from his shoulder.
"... what salt is all in this paper bag"
"That's right. Try poking your knife around a little bit."
The contents are niceties, in fact, there's only a little salt in them, like that's not the case, and I think you'll need to let them check.
……
Merchant, just for a moment, I'll poke a paper bag with a skinny knife.
The salt leaked sarcastically. Lick it up.
"Salt... Besides, I've never seen superior salt like this before."
Merchants get off the carriage one after the other and surround themselves.
"That's an amazing amount!
"The quality is amazing. Where did you get this?"
"I won't reveal it."
"That's right...... so, how much?
"How much will you give me?
"Three gold coins!
"Buy both of those bags for six!
"Seven!
"Damn... eight. I can't give you any more."
"I'm nine."
"Ten."
……
Everybody shut up.
"Yes, thank you"
Ten young merchants, bid won.
"Let me make sure you have another bag."
"Go ahead."
The merchant follows it with a knife, breaks the paper bag a little, licks the sarcastic salt, and nods.
"... it's a lot of salt. So fine, white, and clear in flavor. You're superior."
"Yes, I made a bit of a hole, so be careful not to spill it"
"Thank you, take it."
I received ten gold coins.
After the gaze of the merchants, who seem a little remorseful, rearrange behind the line.
"I'll do good. Hey, Sin."
"Come on, ten gold coins for 50 kg of salt"
Place a piece of gold in a magic bag and say, "Federal, sabot slag, cupper, 12 gauge 2 · 3/4 in. One shot. The change is in the currency of this country," he snaps.
Contained one shot shell, eleven silver coins and eight large copper coins.
"Three dollars a shot shell, three hundred yen, four big copper coins. Twelve big copper coins and one silver coin. One gold coin for twelve silver coins. That means one gold coin for one hundred and forty-four large copper coins. One piece of big copper coin is 75 yen, and one piece of gold is about 10,000 yen. $50 for two salt bags and 100,000 yen because they sold for ten gold coins as 5,000 yen. Ninety-five thousand yen. Is salt worth twenty times my world in this world? The fact that the merchants who are going to enter the castle will make money by buying ten gold coins means that they will either buy more expensive within this city, or they will make more expensive if purchased here. Wow."
"No calculations!
Is that you, Saran?
"You don't know what I am until you count the folds. You're so smart about Singh!
Oh, not so much.
Because I was still an officer of the bureau.
"Salt was surprisingly high...... Outreach, maybe the merchant who was in and out of the Elf village was decent. That's gonna be a big challenge for the future."
"... Sin, you're a talented merchant. Isn't it much more profitable to stop being a hunter and be a merchant?
"I have quite a problem purchasing this product. It is not good to distribute things from different worlds as a commodity. Consider it an emergency evacuation. We have to do a whole lot of business to keep the world out of disruption. Let's make some money."
"Stiff stuff. Hey, Sin."
Yeah, if you take it personally in too many different worlds, the goddess will be angry, I'm sure.
When we entered the castle, the two of us paid one gold coin (for twelve silver coins) to let us through.
Sarah was here and she asked me if I was from somewhere. I guess it's because elves are rare.
You both had no problems in the village of Copoli.
We both have the same hands, so I didn't check my luggage.
"Wow... big city. Wow. It's made of Mi-na stone. Humans are amazing."
No, more than that. You're being watched awesome, Mr. Big Elf.
"Saran, you might want to hide your ears. It stands out because it's an elf."
"Um, you know what? I don't know if I can deceive you with my ears covered."
"Yeah. Because Saran doesn't look like an elf except there."
"... after all? I knew you were? Is that what Singh thinks? Don't I look like an elf?
"... sorry. It was a silence."
Do-doo.
Saran is dark.
No, I'm really sorry.
"I don't know if it's an elf, but from what I've seen, Saran is a wonderful beautiful, cute, and a great cook's wife. Yes, wear this."
"Ah. This is it!
Raccoon fur hat. I made it for you, too, actually.
You're the one with the gray, fuzzy, raccoon shemale tail hanging pretentiously in the back.
It is also famous in my world for its popular use by legendary gun master, hunting master and Texas hero Davey Crockett. They call it a crocket hat.
Have that worn softly to your ears.
"Yeah, cute"
"... like a child."
Hey I guess whoever you look like a child is not in this world......
You're hungry for now, aren't you?
From the fortress gate to the center of the city is the main street. The streets are wide.
There are a lot of stalls lined up that look delicious.
The two of us walk side by side, eating and walking.
"Yummy! Good seasoning!"
Skewers. This is... pork meat, I guess.
"Bovine meat."
A skewer, five big copper coins or four?
Not only salt roasts, but also mysterious sauce roasts.
Humans are after all the most enthusiastic about this kind of taste.
"Sister, come on! Eat a lot!
My aunt in the street talks to me funny.
You're used to being told it's big. It's nicotine there and Saran grabs a hot dog-style meaty bread.
"Well, we're looking for a job."
"Well, what kind of work?
"We're both hunters."
"Oh, I guess that would be a hunter (hunter) guild. Have you tried the east exit?
"No."
"There's a big market at the east entrance, and there's a big shop right next to the entrance that buys meat and fur. Behind it is the hunter's guild's office. If you're going to be a hunter, you should qualify there."
"Okay. Thank you."
Pi.
Check the direction with the compass watch. Is the eastern exit... that way?
Even though this city is a fortified city, the walls are about 3m high. Well, I guess it's high enough that wildlife and demons don't come in. I've never seen a demon before.
It's not a war premise. I wonder if this is world peace.
